God is busy on reality shows lately. Besides all of his work to keep Matt on Survivor Redemption Island against Matt’s will, God is now deciding whether Jennifer Lopez will return to American Idol for its 11th season next year. That’s because, unlike Steven Tyler, she is only signed for one year, and she’s now shopping a new singing competition series. J Lo may move on to another reality series: Entertainment Weekly reported that American Idol creator Simon Fuller is working with her “to shop a new project to broadcast networks. The series would have Lopez and her husband Marc Antony touring Latin America and searching for the best undiscovered musical talent. The working title: Que Viva.” The magazine cited unspecified “sources” who say that they “expect Lopez will sign up for another round given how much the Fox hit has raised her profile.” In an E! News interview with Ryan Seacrest (ah, journalism circa 2011), J Lo said she is considering a return (“Of course, of course.”) but ad...
American Idol 3 finalist and Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson appeared on OWN’s Season 25: Oprah Behind the Scenes , the fascinating and entertaining series that follows Oprah’s producers as they assemble the show. But Jennifer’s appearance wasn’t all that happy. That’s because Jennifer rehearsed, and then, without telling producers, left Chicago and flew to Dallas for a private party. When she didn’t arrive the next morning—when the show already had an atypical three episodes to film because of a blizzard in Chicago—the producers learned that she was gone. Worse, because of an ice storm, her plane was delayed by two hours, throwing off the entire day of shooting and making Oprah very, very unhappy. Oprah was so unhappy that, after apologizing personally to the waiting audience members, she told the reality show crew to stay behind when she went into Jennifer’s dressing room to give her the smack-down after Jennifer finally arrived. Oprah told us later that she said, “I don’t appreciate ...

There’s a problem with American Idol 10’s new judges, and not just that one of them makes sexual comments about teenagers. What are we going to call Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez? Steven? Jennifer? J Lo? Over the years, Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson were known as Simon, Paula and Randy (later joined by Kara and Ellen), and those first names felt comfortable from the beginning. That casual familiarity is part of the show’s charm. But somehow it feels very weird to just write or say “Steven” or “Jennifer.” The lead singer of Aerosmith doesn’t seem like someone who’s just “Steven.” And last names don’t quite work and are too formal for this context; plus, Steven Tyler’s is also a first name which makes it sound like another person. J Lo is short and casual enough, but it also doesn’t seem like something Ryan Seacrest would say from the stage: “J Lo, what do you think?” Right now, I’m just writing “Steven Tyler” every time I need to refer to him, and “Jennifer Lopez” or “...
